Healthy Meal: Grilled Swordfish with Moroccan Charmoula

cooking / Leave a Comment

I had some leftover swordfish, so I went browsing for recipes on Food Network. It seemed like almost every recipe was citrus-y, but I wanted something different since I just did a citrus swordfish on Thursday. I finally found this recipe, which has some savory Moroccan flavors. Recipe notes:I had a craving for potatoes since I was good and avoided the buttery potatoes my friend ordered and offered me at brunch this morning, so I decided to make mashed potatoes to go with this fish. Chopped the potato pretty finely, then popped them into some boiling water for about 15 …

Healthy Meal: "Cream" of Spinach Soup

cooking / 1 Comment

One of the nice things about being on a travel project is that I don’t need to go into the office on Fridays. No one else on my team is based in New York, so we’re all conversing via IM, e-mail, and phone anyway. Plus, we always have tons of “extracurricular” office activities on Fridays (training, philanthropy, recruiting, eminence, etc), so we typically put in long hours at the client from Monday through Thursday, then a few hours on Friday, and then a few hours on Saturday and Sunday to make up for it. I still usually go into the …

Healthy Meal: Grilled Swordfish and Spaghetti with Citrus Pesto

cooking, running / Leave a Comment

Tonight I wanted to eat really lightly, because I had pigged out a bit last night at a team dinner. I also knew I had some swordfish in the freezer, so I pulled out this recipe that I had saved a while ago. Even if you make it according to the directions, it’s pretty healthy, but I was able to make it even better. I paired it with some frozen mixed beans for a little extra veggie fix. Recipe notes: swordfishNo salt, no oil – just a little pepper and toss it on the Foreman. Swordfish cooks really quickly, so …

Healthy Meal: Chipotle Cashew Chicken with Brown Rice and Spinach Salad

cooking / 3 Comments

Last night, my roommate came home right when I was finishing up dinner, so I ended up talking to her instead of posting my recipe. that means today, you get two recipes! (And maybe a few more as well, since I have a couple recipes that I cooked and took pictures of but neglected to post). This recipe springs from me wanting to use up some fridge leftovers. I had chicken (from another recipe, to be posted soon), red peppers (from the same), hazelnuts (from like… 3 months ago), and chipotles in adobo (from whenever I make turkey chili). I …

Healthy Meal: Oven "Fried" Pork Chop and Honey Roasted Sweet Potatoes

cooking / 2 Comments

It’s rare for me to not think about food for most of the day. I usually am dreaming about what I’m going to have for dinner. However, at 6 PM today, I had forgotten to think about dinner at all, and was browsing Food Network trying to think what I was in the mood for. I was kind of in the mood for fried chicken, but I knew I only had a HUGE breast in the freezer that was really two servings. I know you can’t unfreeze and then refreeze meats, and since I’m traveling till Thursday, the other half …
